update to TYB Lacto blend
| [[SouthYeast Labs]] || Lactobacillus 2 || Unknown || Homofermentatative || || Source: Prickly pear fruit (South Carolina). Best suits strong sours, and lambic (high acidity).

| [[The Yeast Bay]] || Lactobacillus Blend || ''L. plantarum'', and 2 strains of ''L. brevis'' || Heterofermentative || || The Lactobacillus Blend includes three strains: ''Lactobacillus plantarum'', ''Lactobacillus brevis'' and a second strain of ''Lactobacillus brevis'' isolated from an accidentally soured blonde ale from a unique brewer of American sour beers that returned a sequencing result of "uncultured Lactobacillus"Mexican craft brewery. Quickly produces acidity across a wide range of temperatures. It can be used on its own for kettle souring prior to pitching yeast to create acidity quickly, or co-pitched with yeast to create sourness over time. It will produce a pronounced and rounded acidity. The Yeast Bay recommends holding the IBU on the low end (< 2-3) if you'd like to use this blend to create acidity in a shorter time frame. Higher IBUs may result in very slow or no souring (testing , but the strain of ''L. brevis'' isolated from the Mexican craft brewery is still ongoing hop tolerant up to determine about 15-20 IBU at which lactic acid production is inhibited). Temperature: 70-90°F. Cell count: 50-80 million cells/mL (1.75-2.8 billion cells for 35 mL homebrew vials) <ref name="WL_cellcounts"></ref><ref>[https://www.facebook.com/groups/MilkTheFunk/permalink/1280135442014667/?comment_id=1280341068660771&reply_comment_id=1280498695311675&comment_tracking=%7B%22tn%22%3A%22R1%22%7D Conversation with Nick Impellitteri on MTF regarding TYB Lactobacillus Blend cell counts. 04/08/2016.]</ref>. Recommended temperature range for fastest acid production for kettle souring is 85-90°F, although if kept in the 70's it should produce good acidification in 48-72 hours. A major drop off of in acid production is seen above 90°F <ref>[https://www.facebook.com/groups/MilkTheFunk/permalink/1616265398401668/?comment_id=1617001948328013&comment_tracking=%7B%22tn%22%3A%22R%22%7D Impellitteri, Nick.
